Atrophic arthritis usually begins
as an acute 'attack in one or more
joints. It may follow an injury,
especially if the individual has
been in poor health from some
type of infection. It mav resem
ble an acute rheumatic fever but
tends to linger in one joint longer
before a second joint becomes in
volved, and the first joint docs
not tend to clear rapidly at this
time as it does in rheumatic fever.
This joint condition usually flares
up and down for a time then grad
ually improves. The improvement
may be over weeks or recur and
, flare up over a period of months
or yean.
There may be very acute swell
ing with severe pain, and often
there is an accumulation of fluid
in the joint with an accompany
ing increase in its site. It may in
volve any joint in the body
knees, elbows, ankles, wrists, fin
gers, spine, jaw and hips are
some of the more common arcn.

Seattleites Hit
Rate Preference
SEATTLE Wl -The Seattle Traf
fic Assn. and the Tacoma Cham
ber of Commerce asked the Pa
cific Inland Tariff Bureau in a
joint appeal Thursday to adjust
Pacific Northwest motor freight
rates which they contend give an
advantage to Portland.
A statement said that although
Portland is 90 miles farther than
Seattle from Eastern Washington,
Northern Idaho and Montana.
goods may be shipped between
those points and Portland for the
same rates as to and from Seattle
and Tacoma.
The two groups said in addi
tion Portland has only a 45-mile
advantage to Eastern Oregon.
Southern Idaho and Utah but has
a rate advantage over Seattle and
Tacoma averaging S8 a ton on
less - than - truckload shipments.
The Seattle - Tacoma groups
asked that rales from . Eastern
Oregon, Southern Idaho and Utah
be made the same to Seattle -Tacoma
as to Portland, or that
rates from Eastern Washington,
Northern Idaho and Montana be
increased to cover the additional
mileage.
sult in some deformity of the
joint and limitation of motion.
There are great variations in the
degree and time ot improvement
or extent of damage. In some in
dividuals, after a stormy attack
and with careful living, the chang
es clear up, leaving Mile trace
behind. The common course is
progressive, leaving a good deal
of deformity. This is one of the
greatest sources of disability
known to mankind.
After a joint has been involved
for some time, there is limitation
of movement, and this results in
poor nutrition, not only of the
muscles that move the joint, but
of the individual as a whole. There
is considerable absorption of the
mineral elements of the bone
which can readily be noted by
X-ray. This involvement is very
progressiva and leads to great dis
ability, with swollen fluid filled
hums, especially in ine wrists
fingers and knees. There is usual
ly an associated anemia, with
bouts of fever, and often an en
largement of the spleen. This con
dition is very resistive to treat
ment. Since the tissues about the
joints, and often between them
undergo wasting or atrophy, it is
given tne name atrophic arthritis
although in many Instances, esne
cially in the minor cases, there is
little atrophy but usually some
weakness or Immobility of the
joints. (Pd. Adv.)
Signs Of Minor
Post Election
Boom Reported
By WAITIR BRIIDI Jr.
NEW YORK 0B Signs of a
minor post-election boom popped
up this week in several key areas
of the nation's business. ,
The rising trend was apparent
in steel, textiles, construction,
and retail trade and in the
production and sale of 1955 autos.
Stock values surged to new 25
year highs in a burst of bull mar
ket enthusiasm. Commodity prices
stiffened. ?
Most of the leverage seemed to
come from Detroit.
The U.S. Department of Labor
said increased hiring by the auto
industry had more than o.fset a
usual seasonal decline in factory
employment. In the one-month
period ended Oct. 15, auto-makers
called back 80.000 workers.
Demand from the auto industry
pushed steel production (estima
ted at 77.2 per cent of capacity)
to its highest level in nearly a
year and helped boost electric
power, output to an all-time rec
ord. , -Biggest
Question facing the in
dustry was: How long would the
new car Doomiet last? some deal
ers, fearing overproduction, had
misnivlnes. One off-kev develop
ment was the appearance of brand
new 1955's on used car lots, at
below-list prices.
In department stores and spe
cialty shops there was evidence
that at least some people weee
heeding retailers' advice to do
their Christmas shopping early.
Several big chain stores report
ed a noticeable pickup in October
business.
Real estate and construction
gained momentum, too. The Fed
eral Housing Administration told
of being swamped last month by
home buyers seeking FHA-insured
mortgages.
How do businessmen feel about
1955? Dun & Bradstreet asked
1,309 executives how they thought
business would be in the upcom
ing first quarter. Tne majority
view: A "definite upturn is ex
pected. Many Senators
Avoiding Issue
Of McCarthy
WASHINGTON 0B Several
Democratic senators conceded Fri
day they have been avoiding as
much as possible any active role
in the sometimes angry aeDaie
over proposed censure of Sen.
McCarthy (R-Wis).
In separate interviews, several
Democrats indicated they may
have something to saylater if and
when a vote on tne main issues ap
pears assured.
"After an, mis is primarily a
Republican responsibility at this
staee." Sen. Jackson (D-Wash)
said. "Additional debate right now
would only prolong this."
Jackson, who tangled with Mc
Carthy as a member of the com
mittee that conducted the tumult
uous 36-dav hearings on the Wis
consin senator's row with Secre
tary of the Army Stevens, added:
"I've lived with this thing too
font. I doubt there is anv senator
who has not made up his mind
by now how he will vole."
Democratic Leader Lyndon B.
Jackson of Texas is known to have
encouraged senators on his side
of the aisle to keep out of -the
rows among Republicans. Asked
about this. Johnson grinned and
said:
Now. vou know I can't stop
any senator from speaking."

At Testimonial

MILWAUKEE ( Sen. McCar

vinced the Senate will censure him
and wishes it would set it over
with, will be honored by Wisconsin
state admirers at a testimonial
dinner tonight.
Sponsors of (he dinner at a Mil
waukee hotel said the limit of
1,500 tickets at S5 a plate has been
sold.
McCarthy, interviewed last night
when he arrived from Washington
with his wife, said opponents had
enough votes to censure him. "The
speeches won't make any
difference," he said. "I'd like to
see a vole right away so we can
get back to work. As of right
now they have tenough votes. The
Democrats will 'go down the line.

Sen. Goldwater (R-Ariz) will be

an effort to destroy the Commu

Russia Proposes
Conference On
Europe Security
MOSCOW tfl The Soviet gov
ernment Saturday proposed hold
ing a conference on European se
curity either in Moscow or Paris
Nov. 29.
A Soviet note was sent to the
French government Saturday mak
ing this proposal. Copies were sent
to other interested governments,
including the United States. Com
munist China was asked to send
observers.
The new Soviet note was obvious
ly aimed at delaying or preventing
ratification of the Paris Pact
granting sovereignty to West Ger
many and granting that country
the right to rearm.
It follows the month-old Soviet
idea of a security svstem embrac
ing all European countries as well
as the United Slates. This organ-
laztion would reDlace the systems
of defense alliances which the West
has laboriously built up and would
specifically ban the integration of
a rearmed West Germany in the
system.

Idea Nonsense
Says Ike's Aide
TOLEDO, Ohio UR President
Eisenhower's press secretary la
beled as "a lot of nonsense" Fri
day a published report that the.
chief executive had promised Re
publican leaders he would run for
re-election in 1956.
The secretary, James C. Ha
gerty, was referring to a story in
the Akron (Phio) Bescon Journal.
Political Writer Clyde Mann
wrote in Friday's Beacon Journal
he was informed Eisenhower made
such a promise to GOP leaders at
a White House meeting shortly
after last week's elections in which
Republicans lost control of Con
gress to the Democrats.
"It's a lot of nonsense," Ha
gerty told newsmen. "There was
no such meeting."
Hagerty was asked about the
report as the Prssident was hunt
ing duck near Toledo on Lake
Erie. '
Mann said in his story: "At the
meeting, party leaders told the
President the psrty would be with
jut leadership If the President de
cided to retire.
"Party leaders attributed the
GOP loss of the House and Senate
to more than just the traditional
off year election (losses)."
The story of this meeting, said
Mann, was obtained from a peri
son very close to the President
Mann also stated that: "Several
members of the President's per
sonal staff will be replaced soon
with persons skilled in the art of
practical politics."
This definitely, will not include
